The mother of the minor girl seen in a viral video making objectionable remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi has thanked the Prime Minister for choosing forgiveness over retaliation. She said PM Modi’s decision had given her daughter “a new life.”
Speaking to PTI, the girl’s mother said she folded her hands in gratitude to the Prime Minister for forgiving her daughter instead of seeking revenge. She said PM Modi had demonstrated greatness by pardoning a child who had used highly inappropriate and abusive language against him.
Calling it the biggest gift on the Prime Minister’s birthday, she said the decision was nothing short of a new lease of life for her daughter. According to her, it marked a fresh beginning for the teenager.

CJP Protest Triggered Controversy
The controversy arose during a student protest led by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) at Jantar Mantar against the alleged NEET-UG paper leak. During the demonstration, objectionable slogans targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi were allegedly raised.
Following the incident, PM Modi shared a video on his Instagram account on Friday, urging people to exercise restraint. He said those making such remarks were misguided and that such situations should not be met with anger or revenge.
